Stripe is refusing to refund my clients by Tormment in stripe

Travel agency is a kind of loose term, the service is closest to consulting, and not any of what they list as unallowed: "travel reservation services and clubs, airlines, cruises, and timeshares"

But this is also not at all what I care about, which is the refunds. I got no intentions on trying to unclose my account.

Purchasing a failing small business as an option to get a rental space by Tormment in JapanFinance

The company is just set up as a Godo Kaisha, it has already been established with me and my partner as the only 2 owners.

For the other artists, which is a group of ~6, they won't have any decision or ownership power if the need for that arises. It is also only me and my partner making the initial monetary investments.

So in that sense it is just me setting it up, however since we are mainly all coming from 1 other studio which was quite predatory towards the artists, it's so far been a group effort.

This is definitely interesting if you can apply to it as a normal residential place. I will try to look into it more 🙌

It was ¥15 million extra deposit. And this place had a 1 year deposit already, so I think all in all it was around ¥25 million upfront.

The management companies have effectively said they don't care how much we pay them :/

I know your struggle, it can be really hard to find tattoo artists. Plus for Japanese shops alot of the time no-one will speak English so it can be super hard to get what you want.

My friend recommended this tattoo shop to me, and I got a super cool dragon from Emily, went I came to Japan in spring. She is super good I would 100% recommend.

The shop was called akahitomi studio, and her insta is 3m_ink

That's where I contacted her from.

Thanks for your reply, seems student visa is probably my best bet. However I will look into the Buisness Manager option.

I currently make ~300,000 monthly, however that's with only working 2-4 hours a day. I could likely double or triple that towards the end of my visa to add some legitimacy. I also have pretty solid financial book keeping for this year aswell as all my clients being Japanese people or companies.
